- — The Books of Sorrow XXX
The Warpriest is an Ascendant Hive and one of Oryx, the Taken King's most powerful champions, having conquered five-hundred and eighty-five worlds from the time of the Golden Amputation to the fall of the Gift Mast. Utterly devoted to the principles of slaughter, victory, and to the Taken King himself, the Warpriest offers Oryx his tribute in the challenge and slaying of Guardians, often in appeasement for the Worms' gluttonous appetite within Oryx. He is encountered in the King's Fall Raid in the Basilica, and bars the way to Golgoroth's Cellar.
Gameplay
The Warpriest is an Ultra Hive knight whose immune to conventional means; the only way of damaging him is with the "Aura of the Initiate" buff, which is gained by performing a random glyph sequence with pads scattered around the room. If the player with the aura does not kill an enemy in time, they will die and the aura will be transferred to someone else.
Like Crota, the Warpriest also uses an Oversoul in the form of the Oculus, which will kill any Guardian not standing directly in the shadow of one of the three monuments in the room.
In Hard Mode of King's Fall, the Warpriest gains the ability to call upon 3 separate monoliths, each of which grants him an ability from a Taken enemy: the first one represents an Axion Dart like that of a Taken Centurion, the second one represents a Retaliation Swarm like those of a Taken Hobgoblin, and the third one represents a Darkness Bolt like that of a Taken Captain.
